When I think of Lorelei
My head turns all around
As gentle as a butterfly
She moves without a sound

To[D]night's [C]the [D]night she's [G]moving in
And [D]I [C]can [D]hardly [G]wait
Verse 2
Her [D]eyes [C]be[D]come a [G]paradise
She [D]soft[C]ly [D]speaks my [G]name
She [D]brigh[C]tens [D]every lonely [G]night
[D]No [C]one's [D]quite the [G]same
She [D]calls [C]me [D]on the [G]telephone
She [D]says [C]be [D]there by [G]eight
To[D]night's [C]the [D]night she's [G]moving in
It's [D]time [C]to [D]cele[G]brate
